3D printing and scanning technologies have brought about a revolutionary transformation in the dental and biomedical fields. In dentistry, 3D scanning allows for precise digital impressions of patients' teeth and oral structures, eliminating the discomfort of traditional molds. These digital impressions can then be used to design and fabricate custom dental implants, crowns, and orthodontic devices with remarkable accuracy and speed.3D printing enables the creation of intricate dental prosthetics and aids, blueucing production time and costs.
In the biomedical realm, 3D printing has facilitated the development of patient-specific anatomical models, surgical guides, and even tissue and organ replacements. Researchers are exploring new techniques to generate living tissues and organs, offering the potential for groundbreaking advances.
Utilizing 3D Scanning & Printing in
Dental and Medical Applications
Faster iteration time, less outsourcing and downtime
With 3D Printing, you can reduce the amount of time needed to get a finished model. Thanks to the Formlabs Form 3B+, you can go from digital file to ready-to-use finished print faster.
A Proven Workflow
One of the major benefits of bringing 3D printing and scanning into your working environment is that there is a proven workflow. Allowing you to go from scan to print for a fraction of the cost and time of outsourcing

Case Studies
Utilizing The Mayku Multiplier For The Dental Industry
Most dental labs make a range of thermoformed appliances. Some are tiny (1 man in a room) some are large (100 people in a factory). But all labs face a common problem: Their ability to take on work is limited by their capacity.
Small labs can be overworked and unable to offer certain services due to a small team size. Large labs want to scale up production to grow their business but don’t have the space or staff. Pressure formers that exist on the market today only make one appliance at a time.
See how these dental labs grew their capacity, scaled up production and achieved faster turnaround times in production with the Mayku Muliplier.
